My Little Bitter Battle With Pain

I never thought I'd weep so bitterly,
Perhaps,
I perceived I was stronger,
A lion,
But my heart was in pain,
Torn into pieces and weary,
My eyes were ever teary,
It was just me...
And my broken heart to keep me company.

...and poetry in itself is all ocean, perhaps where antagonisms are cleansed. and there a new cycle reborn. words conjoined emotively into a perfect embrace. its like our soul is cleansed...
